NOTICE TO STATE WATER PROJECT CONTRACTORS

Number: 25-05
Subject: Increase of State Water Project 2025 Allocation to 50 Percent
From: ______________________________
John Yarbrough
Deputy Director, State Water Project
Department of Water Resources
Moderate storm events of the last month led to improvements in snowpack and water
supply runoff in the Northern Sierra. These conditions, along with a conservative forecast
of conditions through the rest of the year, support the Department of Water Resources
(DWR) in increasing the State Water Project (SWP) allocation from 40 percent to 50
percent of most State Water Project (SWP) contractors’ requested Maximum Annual
Table A Amounts for 2025, as shown in Attachment A – 2025 SWP Allocation. DWR may
revise the SWP allocation if water supply conditions change.
To determine the available SWP water supplies, DWR considers such factors as SWP
contractors’ 2025 demands, existing storage in SWP conservation facilities, estimates of
future runoff, SWP operational and regulatory requirements from the Federal Endangered
Species Act and California Endangered Species Act, and water rights obligations under
the State W ater Resources Control Board’s authority.
To schedule SWP water deliveries under this allocation, DWR will utilize the 50-percent
water delivery schedules submitted by the SWP contractors in October 2024 (as part of
initial requests) or as revised with any subsequent updates. If an SWP contractor foresees
any changes to their water delivery schedule, please communicate such changes to DWR
in a timely manner.
If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact me at
John.Yarbrough@water.ca.gov.
